BRO

This package can access the REST API from the BRO. Currently, this package provides functionality to request CPTs from the BRO when you provide a region of interest. The format is based on the REST API of the BRO, which is described here for CPTs.

Current options include retrieval of the following objects:

1. CPTs (format: bytes, dict)

The package also allows export of the retrieved data in GeoJSON format.

Note 1: The BRO is only available for the Netherlands, other locations are not supported.

Note 2: The API of the BRO is limited and requesting large amounts of data may result in instability.

Installation

pip install bro

Use

Example usage to retrieve CPTs from the BRO as dictionaries.

from datetime import datetime

import Envelope
import Point
import get_cpt_characteristics_and_return_cpt_objects

begin_date = datetime(2015, 1, 1).strftime("%Y-%m-%d")
end_date = datetime(2023, 3, 3).strftime("%Y-%m-%d")

# Define small square area that returns 5 valid cpts
lower_corner = Point(51.92269686635185, 4.469594207611851)
upper_corner = Point(51.923034432171065, 4.470094707426648)

area = Envelope(lower_corner, upper_corner)
cpts = get_cpt_characteristics_and_return_cpt_objects(begin_date, end_date, area, as_dict= True)
